Tadataka Unno, a New York-based Japanese jazz pianist, was assaulted by eight youths at a subway station on Sept 27. It’s now unclear whether the 40-year-old, who suffered serious injuries, including a broken collarbone, will be able to return to performing again. According to the New York Police Department, the incident occurred at around…

      There is massive pushback from the actual people of japan against US bases. Their cucked by the US right wing government does not give a shit tho.

        Not really, most Japanese love the US. 29% oppose, 67% approve.

        For comparison, that's more favorable than almost every European country. It's not just the government, most of the nation truly sees the US as the "good guys".

          Those 29% are probably the people who actually live near US bases in japan.

          1/3 of the population seems pretty substantial to me. But by all means, go ahead and ignore them if you want.

          I also fail to see what this has to do with some poor guy getting the shit beaten out of him in NY because of Yellow Peril 2.0

            That's less than every european country save Poland, which is pretty much a "murica good" cult at this point

              Not sure what your point is here really. I posted a story about an asian dude getting fucked up in NY, which was obviously a direct consequence of anti-chinese scaremongering in western media, and you show up here with "well, japan bad".

              This is getting kinda weird tbh.

                The average Japanese person is unaware that their country is a US vassal state, and that most of their economic woes are due to US military-backed "diplomacy" that forcibly manipulated their currency in the 1980s, killing their huge export advantage in many tech sectors, transferring them over to US companies, and forcibly transferring much of their tech along the way.

                All of this is literally the reason for "hikikomoris" and such but the average Japanese person is blissfully unaware of it, and because of this they actually pathologically blame themselves, when the actual problem is that their country is literally a US prostitute.

                But again I'm betting they don't learn any of this shit in the US-centric sanitized history they learn.

                If Japan had somehow had nukes in 1980 and no US bases, it'd be even more dominant than it was back then.

                  Completely irrelevant. I posted something that happened to an asian person in the US.

                  He could have been from anywhere in asia, but the point is that what happened to him was because of the anti-chinese propaganda that is currently being peddled by both US parties.

                  Is this really so hard to understand?

                    Yes, you posted something that happened to a Japanese person for being mistaken as "Chinese". Because Northeast Asian ethnicities look fairly similar to each other.

                    A majority of Japanese support racist US white supremacist hegemony, dislike China's rise, and will not change their position even upon seeing stories like these, because they think they'll somehow be unaffected by it. Even though it has already ruined their country.

                My point is that the Japanese government is illegitimate and more importantly, that most Japanese people are brainwashed to a such a degree that it affects the sense of self

                  That still has fuck all to do with an asian guy being attacked in NY because of mUh cHiNa bAd propaganda.

                  But god forbid that the US actually take responsibility for their shitty actions, right? Keep on trucking.

                    I mean the main intention of my comment was to show the conflicting realities of "racist white american government" and "Japanese nation still loving them despite this"

                    People will see this story, think "oh too bad", or if they're fashy even have some anti-Chinese thoughts, and then go on continuing their pro-US mental existence.

                    Obviously this doesn't apply to the minority of people there who oppose the US.
